	Kelvin Central (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-26)
		The fully merged Kelvin Central Buses Ltd. was formed on 17 July 1989 by order of the Government, as a supposedly necessary step in the privatisation of the Scottish Bus Group.
		Although the combination of Kelvin and Central was widely described as a "merger", and despite the new company's Head Office being in Motherwell, it was clear from the start that Kelvin management were in control.
		Central would give way to Kelvin, which in turn would be swallowed by Strathclyde Buses.

		Buses in the range 1453 – 1520 were again classified RMC and were used on limited stop Greenline services, these having a two piece front destination display instead of the three piece units found on the red buses.
		Initially these buses were despatched to breakers yards, but during the mid 1980s they were to become very much sought after in the early days of de-regulated bus services, and appeared in many fleets and towns throughout the UK.
		The buses were cut in two, and an additional body section added in the centre of the bus to produce a higher capacity vehicle.

	KELVIN SCOTTISH 1237 (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-26)
		Kelvin Scottish inherited many of Central's Mark 2 Nationals on its formation, and quickly set about acquiring more from the other SBG companies.
		EFE used their Mark 1 National to represent a Mark 2 by simply fitting a new grille, which does not capture the bulbous front end these buses had in order to accomodate the radiator.
		The model has further been enhanced by smoothing the joins around the front and rear panel and fitting BMAC rear light clusters, as fitted to many of these buses when their originals were damaged.

		This vehicle is preserved in Glasgow's Museum of Transport at the Kelvin Hall.
		At that time, Glasgow's buses were painted in Greater Glasgow PTE livery; I could be wrong, but I don't think any vehicles were left in the old Corporation livery in which LA1 is preserved by then,so it might not be entirely accurate for the period.
		I couldn't tell the length of the bus in the movie, but prior to 1955 (when the incident took place), all buses delivered to Montgomery City Lines were short 36 passenger models, although National City Lines could have later shifted buses among the different properties.

		The National Bus Company (NBC) and London Buses were owned buy the State, the County Councils owned the Metropolitan Bus Companies while the Municipals were owned by the Town Councils.
		London buses can be looked at separately because they were privatised much later, but for the record 4 out of the 10 companies had some form of minority employee shareholding although these have now been sold on or also watered down.
		Unfortunately with deregulation, what happened in practice was anyone could run on an existing route at peak times and cream off the profits of the incumbent operator who was trying to run a comprehensive service.

		Glasgow [1] is the largest city in Scotland, and the third largest in the United Kingdom with a population of about 620,000 in the city itself, or over 1.8 million if the surrounding towns of the Clydeside conurbation are taken into account.
		Located at the west end of Scotland's Central Belt on the banks of the River Clyde, Glasgow's historical importance as Scotland's main industrial centre has been challenged in recent decades by decline and change.
		In general however, driving in Glasgow's central area should be avoided if you are not absolutely sure of where you are going, with its maze of one way systems, bus lanes and pedestrian precincts.
